Tho difference of opinion on what to

Aeotjli-iie gas may ho substituted
for kerosene as the illuiulnaut fo
the lighthouses of the Hawaiian Isl
ands. The matter bus been prett)
thoroughly discussed by the authori
ties of late uml It is not ImpiobablJ
that a change may be made lu one or
two of t lib. lights within u very shoit
time,
It has been suggested that the uow
llghthoiihu In Honolulu harbor might
be u good place to Install the first of
the new lamps, and thoie Is more
than a possibility Hint, before many
moons have passed, the brightly burn
leg beacons which will warn ships
of dangerous reefs may be red by acet
ylene gas. It Is also possible that
tho six pile-lights that mark tho
channel will be fitted with acetylene
lamps.
Should the proposed change of Il
luminant he made, it will mean that
some forty lights will have to be til
ted with new lamps. Whllo this will
mean the expenditure of considerable
money to start In with, It Is believed
thut, In tho end, it will provo econom
